...sufficiently clear, I shall not encroach upon your space further, by enlarging on them. Permit me again, through your columns, to thank all those who so kindly assisted me last year. My very particular thanks are due to Mr. Guy Waring, the treasurer of 1881-1882, for his frequent assistance and invaluable advice, and it gives me great pleasure to testify to his interest in, and desire for, the welfare of the boat club. Apologizing for trespassing thus on your space, I remain...
...further the progress of science such as the College de France, the Jardin des Plantes, and the Ecle des Etudes Superieures. The faculties are entirely separated from one another, even when they are in the same town. The course of study is definitely prescribed, and is controlled by frequent examinations.

The graduating class is seldom represented in these boisterous gatherings, its members being kept too busy with their exercises in the theatre...
...larger specimens of the same species used the yard as a bicycle riding track. The college authorities should enforce the privileges of private property by appointing an officer whose duty shall be to keep the yard free from obnoxious intruders. If the crowd of the "unwashed" who now frequent the yard were made to understand that they were, like beggars and pedlars, in danger of being "given in charge to the police," our class days, also, would be freer from a disagreeable element, who now regard class day as a public holiday of their...
